CrimeReads included The Turn of the Key in their “Most Anticipated Crime Books of Summer” round-up. They said: “We hope it’s not too much to say that Ruth Ware is the future of traditional mystery in contemporary settings; each of her novels takes us into well-worn territory and reinvents for the present day. Her upcoming mystery is no exception.”

The Lewiston Tribune (Lewiston, ID) mentioned The Turn of the Key in a feature on summer suspense titles called “Season of Suspense”.

Shereads—What she reads if she loves Ruth Ware: “Ruth Ware is the master of writing terrifying novels that readers can’t get enough of. From The Woman in Cabin 10 to The Lying Game and a plethora of other smash hits, she knows what it takes to write a truly captivating book.”

Lithub—Lit Hub’s Most Anticipated Books of 2019: “Ware’s mastery of the traditional mystery merged with the twisty psychological thriller never fails to impress! While Ware is known for her sudden reversals, I promise you that you’ll never see the end of THE TURN OF THE KEY coming. Which means everyone needs to read it so we can talk about that ending.”
